Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.
5) What WWE Is Offering The Revival
Dash Wilder and Scott Dawson of The Revival are two guys who could become free agents. Their contracts with WWE are rumored to expire sometime in 2020.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select (subscribe here), WWE is working very hard to re-sign them.
Sapp says that they are being offered more money and fewer dates in their next contract with WWE. He also says that WWE is “throwing everything at the Revival, and they’re just saying ‘we’ll let you know.’”
My Take:
- I think that The Revival will stay. It sounds like they are being offered a sweet deal and are just using AEW to get the best offer possible. We will have to wait and see though as they haven’t had the best booking in WWE and I could see them deciding to leave.
4) WWE Star Not Returning At The Royal Rumble?
Over the past little while, there have been some rumors that Nia Jax could be returning in the Women’s Royal Rumble match. She has been out of action for the past several months after tearing both of her ACLs.
According to journalist Tom Colohue, a more realistic return for Nia is probably the Wrestlemania 36 battle royal. Here is what he said:
She has been recording some backstage WWE documentary stuff which is leading to her return which is expected to be moderately soon – probably not as soon as the Royal Rumble. And I don’t think they will involve her in the build to WrestleMania either because there’ll be a lot of focus on the main stars.
However, I think a very realistic target for Nia Jax would be the Women’s WrestleMania Battle Royal. I think that would be a good place for her to return. She could dominate that and potentially win it and that would be a good way to get her back in the system.
My Take:
- Becky Lynch vs Nia Jax is a natural feud for both ladies. I wonder if WWE saves that feud until after Wrestlemania 36? This feud would be based on Nia injuring Becky last year.
